Abstract
This is not a fictitious title because, unfortunately, it is a real event. On the last day of 2017, citizens informed the police that Kosevo's streets in Sarajevo (the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina) from one of garbage containers came to strange sounds like baby crying. When the cops who went out to the field opened the container, they found frostbitten and crying baby. The cops and assembled citizens were shocked because they could not believe the baby was thrown into the trash. This news was the first to publish the Sarajevo daily newspaper Dnevni Avaz (www.avaz.ba), and all media houses in the region and beyond. The baby (girl) was in a pile of rubbish, and had a skullcap on it and was wrapped in a towel. She was immediately transferred to Sarajevo's Pediatric Clinic where doctors found the baby healthy and aged between two and five days. Thanks to the timely reaction of citizens and police, the baby is saved. Why is this event important to our reader audience? It is important because it speaks, above all, of the lack of parental love for a newly born child. What can doctors and other medical professionals do in these and similar situations? They cannot do much, but what they can do of exceptionally importance for making future decisions.
